Package visibility is actually one of the things I dislike the most about golang :(
Coming from Python, I got used to the "explicit is better than implicit" Zen. With "import *" being discouraged, usually when you see something in your Python code, you know exactly where it came from. When I started out with golang, seeing references to things that came out of nowhere (to my eyes) annoyed the hell out of me. I still consider this a cognitive burden.
